MRS. BUSH: Well, we've just had a very wonderful day in Ghana, President
Bush and I have. I think he's at a tee ball game right now playing
baseball with some children in Ghana. But I've had the pleasure all day of
being with Mrs. Kufuor. Thank you so much for joining me -- at the school
this morning and then here at this clinic.

Jordin Sparks has come from the United States. As you all know, she's the
"American Idol" from 2007, and she's also very interested in working to
make sure we eradicate malaria everywhere. So thank you, Jordin, for
coming.

We've just seen some very interesting things. We saw a skit with some
children and adults talking about using bed nets. The mosquitoes that
cause malaria bite mainly at night, so if you sleep under a bed net, an
insecticide-treated bed net, you really can protect yourself from malaria.

So I urge people in Ghana to make sure you cover your children with a bed
net over their beds; and pregnant women especially, use a bed net to keep
from getting malaria.

And I'm proud that the United States is working with the country of Ghana
on this issue. We've joined with the President's Malaria Initiative, the
already ongoing Ghanaian Malaria Initiative that has been working for a
while.

So thank you very much for your hospitality, Mrs. Kufuor. And thank you to
everybody for your hospitality. We've had a great day here. Thanks a lot.
